Volunteers are a big part of helping to accomplish the vision and mission of PEARL Life Renewal. Volunteers share their heart, gifts, compassion and generosity in many ways including:
Men, women and youth from all walks of life have something valuable to offer, in their gifts, serving and advocacy which make an undeniable impact in the lives of others! Only women over the age of 21 can volunteer with our participants. Agreement to a criminal records check and provision of personal references are required.
Applications are screened including review of a criminal records check. Interviews will be conducted with prospective volunteers, after which references will be contacted. Accepted volunteers are encouraged to serve in areas that matches their gifts or specific skills. You will be asked to sign a volunteer waiver, after reviewing the volunteer handbook.
Training helps to empower volunteers with necessary skills and knowledge in their areas of service. Therefore, all new volunteers are required to complete required training to empower, educate and support in your role with PEARL.
As a volunteer, you will be orientated to your specific role at PEARL. You will be introduced to your Volunteer Coordinator, place of work, and placement expectations, after you have completed the required training.
We want all volunteers “plugged” into an opportunity that is productive and meaningful! To accomplish that, support and annual refresher training will be offered. We also welcome volunteer feedback to improve our volunteer program. Regular performance evaluations will also take place to help you continue in your own growth.
We value volunteers’ giving, commitment, time and efforts in the promotion of PEARL’s mission! PEARL seeks to create a culture of gratitude for the valuable service and contribution of its volunteers through acknowledgement and recognition on a regular basis.
